a few weeks ago while out & about in fitzroy, we passed the beautiful warehouse where galerie montmartre lives. i slowed down, wondering if shelley would be in & while i was deciding whether or not to take the little one, pram and all, in to see, i heard a big, happy "captain!"..which made me laugh & answered my question all in one. shelley disappeared for a second, saying she had something for me & wasn't i blown away when she presented me with this sweet, sweet, little vintage poster, framed and all! i still can't believe it & it makes me smile when i go into mirka's room. mirka loves it too. when i ask her "where are the ducks?" she giggles and points at them. happy.
update: i forgot to say that mirka's gorgeous singlet with the happy yellow kokeshi doll screenprinted on it is from the talented kingsley. you can get one from her etsy shop, i heart mockingbird, here.
so gorgeous! I'll be in the real montmartre soon so will be looking out for treasures xx Jacq

ReplyDeleteDamn I miss Melbourne and all it's artiness!
PS. You could try a banana with honey? That's what I do for sweets when I'm desperate! x
lucky ducky alright! Mirka is too cute. So is the poster.
ReplyDeleteoh captain! so sweet, how lovely is that little mirka! happy that you like the poster, you have been a supporter of galerie montmartre and i for so long, it's the least i can do.

So cute! What a nice gift! Your little girl is the cutest thing ever! I cant wait to see your little boy!
ReplyDeletehow cool is that!! gorgeous print, and she clearly loves it.
ReplyDeletei got confused over at shelley's blog first. I recognised Mirka, and had a double take when i realised she was on a different blog than where i'd expect her to be!!
shelley is such a lovely chick isn't she.
